CHOOSE JAKE AS YOUR DRIVER

5.00The entire Jet Boat Extreme experience was absolutely amazing! Jake was incredibly confident and made everyone feel comfortable from start to finish. He constantly checked in to ensure everyone was at ease and happily accommodated anyone who needed it. Jake was friendly, engaging, and made the whole ride so much fun with his fantastic energy. If you’re heading to the Gold Coast, definitely ask for Jake to be your driver. You will not regret it! He even gave me a special birthday shout out on the video, which was so thoughtful! I have been on many jet boat rides before, but I have never come across a crew quite like the team at Jet Boat Extreme.
Thrilled ride

5.00We had an excellent time! From the lovely young girl who handled our booking, to the staff member who escorted us to the jetty, and the driver who was incredibly engaging and made the whole jet boat ride so much fun — it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. We would definitely recommend Jetboat Extreme!

5.00Toby was so funny and entertaining! He made sure we got splashed and was great with communicating to us and ensuring we knew what was going on + knowledgeable about the coast, gave interesting insights. We also got a video of the highlights of the ride. Great experience.
Highly recommend!
